5 Tips for Praying the Rosary

Baby Steps

Try to focus on just one decade of the rosary every day, setting a goal to pray each of the 20 decades in one month. It only takes about 5 minutes to pray one decade. Find a quiet place and really focus on the mystery. A Scriptural Rosary (available in Catholic bookstores or online) can be especially helpful as it includes Bible verses for each of the ten Hail Marys.
